Chapter 365: This King Won't Give Other Men a Chance
I wanted to think carefully before speaking, but I didn't expect him to be so impatient.
After hesitating for a long time, Shen Ning opened her mouth and said, "I will not marry you now."
Xiao Weijing frowned, "In your heart, is that hurdle so difficult?"
"I have let go of her matter."
"Why is that?" Xiao Weijing didn't understand, "Aning, we are already together."
The most important thing a woman cares about is innocence. She risked her life to come to the north, wash his hands and make soup for him, and even have skin-to-skin intimacy, but now she tells him that she can't get married?
"Did I not do well enough?"
Well... how should I put it? No one is perfect, there must be some shortcomings.
But this is a collision between two civilizations, and neither their thoughts nor their actions are on the same line.
"Xiao Weijing, I am not her, nor am I derived from her thoughts."
Xiao Weijing understood that it was just a matter of reviving a corpse, but he didn't mind at all.
"I come from a very far away place, where there are no emperors and ministers, and men and women are equal..."
Gender equality?
Does she want equality now? She has already been riding on his neck!
"I am myself first and then your woman. No matter before or after marriage, even if I have children in the future, I have my own things to do, instead of spending all my time and energy on you and your children. I say this." Can you accept it?"
Xiao Weijing didn't understand, and her brows deepened, "Cure diseases, save people, and make money, are they so important to you?
Marry me, and my power and honor will belong to you, and you don't have to look at anyone else's face."
"You really don't need to look at anyone's face?"
"certainly."
"When the prince no longer loves you, or your love fades away, and the sight of me makes you sick to your stomach, will your power and honor still belong to me?"
Jiang Ning smiled and said calmly: "I don't look at other people's faces, otherwise I will still live my life based on yours."
"This is a fallacy. How can there be a day when I don't love you?"
"My lord, I'm afraid you have forgotten your own, the stinking look on your face the day I married you, and the humiliation you gave me during the wedding."
"But I didn't know it was you at that time."
"There is no love without reason in this world. Your prince once aimed at the world. I just broke in accidentally during your journey. At that time, you would never have thought that one day you would fall in love with me."
Xiao Weijing was speechless.
"Love, hate, and hatred are normal human emotions. Loss of lust and love are common things in the world, so it is too early to say anything."
The Dog Emperor loved Lao Bailian so much that he even killed his brother and his sister-in-law, so the harem was not filled with a lot of women.
"My lord, you always want to tame me to be as docile as other women, to treat your husband as your first priority. But if I was like that from the beginning, would you really like me?
Not only you, but also the generals under your command are used to comparing me with other princesses, thinking that I should be like them.
When you really tame me like that, will you still keep me at the forefront of your mind?"
Xiao Weijing felt the fallacy, but didn't know how to refute it. Indeed, for a few moments, he was worried about why Shen Ning couldn't be obedient like them.
"My lord, if you treat me as an accessory, please forgive me for not being able to accompany you. It's better to separate as soon as possible."
Macho chauvinism is true, but it was like this in the feudal era. This cannot be entirely his fault. Other men may be more serious.
I saw him looking thoughtful but unconvinced.
Shen Ning could only use him as an example, "For the prince, getting a wife and having children is just a part of life. You have your own ambitions and goals and work hard for them.
The same is true for me. Marrying and having children is not the whole life. Life is long and there are many things worth thinking about.
As a human being, I am Shen Ning first, and then I am your woman, not the nameless Princess Jin in the eyes of the world."
The words were convoluted, but Xiao Weijing understood, "So, you don't want to marry me?"
It’s not that I don’t want to, it just takes time to get used to it.
In this era, women do not have the freedom to marry. As long as men are unwilling to divorce their wives or make peace with each other, they can only be left alive and consume their lives.
Even as the Princess of Jin, she tried her best, used various threats and inducements, and even cured his illness in exchange. It took a full year to get the letter of divorce.
You just came out of the fire pit and now you want to jump in again?
"If you respect, tolerate, love, and give me freedom and equality, of course I am willing to marry you."
"Aning, I can give it to you."
“Promises are not spoken with words, but made with actions.”
In other words, she had to spend time investigating Xiao Weijing.
This gave Xiao Weijing a headache, "How long will it take?"
"It depends on the prince's sincerity."
Now that we have talked about it, let’s talk about it thoroughly, “Your Majesty, you should know that I am a person with a soft eye and will not allow a man to have three wives and four concubines, let alone an extramarital affair or an ambiguous woman.
Even if I get married and have children with you one day, if the prince is in two different situations, he will leave without hesitation."
Xiao Weijing calmed down and said, "I have promised you these things before, but you still don't believe me after saying so much?"
The dog man has lost his temper and needs to be coaxed.
"Of course I believe it, but I have to say the ugly things first to avoid causing trouble later."
"Shen Ning, can your feelings be so clear in your heart?"
"This is not a calculation, it is a principle."
"What about you, will you stay with me for the rest of your life?"
"Of course, as long as we are together, I will be loyal to you, unless..."
"No unless." Xiao Weijing hugged her from behind, "I will not give other men a chance."
"Then you agreed?"
Can he refuse to agree? She must not leave immediately.
He felt extremely uncomfortable, but he still made concessions and compromises, "I will try to do it, and you can tell me if I don't do it right, I can't kill it with a penny."
With that expression on her face, Shen Ning snuggled into her arms and coaxed her, "Your Majesty, actually I don't want to get married and have children with you now, just for your sake."
Xiao Weijing snorted coldly, "Really?"
"We just reconciled, and now we want to get married. Not only does it make people in the world laugh at you, but it even deceives you.
It doesn’t matter if I have a bad reputation, but you are going to do big things, so how can you be despised?"
"Do you think I care about these false reputations?"
Power is gained through fists.
"I know you don't care, but it makes me feel bad." Touching his face, trying to act coquettishly.
Hmm, I feel better, this damn woman still has some conscience.
Shen Ning continued, "Besides, I want to give you a child, and your opponent will use me and the child to threaten you. What will you do then?"
Save, I have tied my hands and feet.
If he doesn't save him, he will be called cold and mean and unkind.
Xiao Weijing glanced over, "In your heart, I am so bad that I can't even protect my wife and children?"
"I know you are very powerful, but there are always differences between people. Since I choose to be with you, I can't be a burden to you."
"Shen Ning, remember, you are my beloved and will never be a burden."
"Then what do you want to do now?" Shen Ning doesn't like to beat around the bush, "Do you want to continue what I just said and choose to be with me, or do you want to separate completely and never bother me?"
